The Indonesia Building Inspiration Foundation (YIIM) together with PT Pertamina Training and Consulting are always committed to supporting strengthening community independence through a series of inclusive and sustainable empowerment initiatives.<\/p>\n
PT Pertamina Training and Consulting (PTC), which is a subsidiary of Pertamina, collaborates with the Indonesian Building Inspiration Foundation (YIIM) to distribute aid for barista and agricultural business equipment for hydroponic vegetables for alumni participating in entrepreneurship class training.<\/p>\n
PT PTC President Director Teuku Mirasfi said that the entrepreneurship training and distribution of aid was part of a series of PT Pertamina Training and Consulting’s social and environmental responsibility (TJSL) events.<\/p>\n
“To close the program, we provided grant assistance for capital equipment for frozen food, coffee barista and hydroponic businesses,” said Mirasfi, quoted by Antara, Wednesday (8\/12).<\/p>\n
He hopes that this assistance can open and develop training participants in order to strengthen the economy during the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Acting VP CSR&SMEPP PT Pertamina (Persero) Dian Hapsari Firasati said that the beneficiaries must innovate and develop businesses to improve welfare after receiving the empowerment assistance.<\/p>\n
The aid handover event was also attended by 11 beneficiaries. One of them is a housewife who pioneered a frozen food business, Ambar Yuliasiwi and Aries Andriyanto (a person with a disability who started a coffee business) and Budi from the Indonesian Independent Disabled Foundation (YDMI).<\/p>\n
The assistance distributed included six packages of grant aid for capital equipment for frozen food businesses (freezers, vacuum food sealers, expired code machines, blenders and stoves), four packages of capital equipment for coffee barista businesses, eight packages of tools for hydroponic farming (five packages of paralon installations, water pumps, buckets, netpots, PH meters, TDS meters, rockwool, nutrients and vegetable seeds).<\/p>\n
Before receiving assistance, Pertamina, PTC together with YIIM held training for 124 people out of 18,047 people who registered. Participants in the activity, which was held from 27 August to 1 October 2021, consisted of 17 hydroponic training participants, 62 coffee barista training participants, and 45 frozen food training participants.<\/p>\n
Beneficiaries of the program are people from underprivileged backgrounds, housewives, people with disabilities who don’t have jobs, workers affected by layoffs, former prison residents, young people who have dropped out of school and underprivileged families.<\/p>\n
As many as 21 people were recorded as starting to apply their knowledge during the training by starting independent small businesses.<\/p>\n
Through this synergy and initiative, the Indonesian Inspiration for Building Foundation (YIIM) hopes that the programs implemented can provide real benefits, open up wider opportunities for independence for participants, and actively contribute to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).<\/p>\n
